Difficult Post So Put Down Your Coffee. First Inspired by the Idea of Taming Some Misguided Pitbulls to play with kids as in "Pittie Nation", but then talking about taming abusers..hmmm

This post explores the general sense of nature vs nurture, causes and cures for abuse and...I'll refine more or add your comments.
